- Data from Philips Mask Selector enables ergonomic cushion
design for superior fit, seal and comfort, promoting adherence
while helping to reduce refits and waste
- Silicone Pillows make DreamWear the only modular hose-on-top
CPAP mask system with three interchangeable cushions, each sized to
fit various facial structures
Amsterdam, the Netherlands – Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG,
AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today introduced
DreamWear Silicone Pillows to the innovative DreamWear system of
masks in North America. The all-silicone pillow cushion was
designed using data from thousands of 3D facial scans to
anatomically conform to fit and seal various nostril shapes and
sizes across populations.
Aiming to address mask refit and therapy adherence challenges
for both patients and providers, DreamWear Silicone Pillows is the
latest addition to Philips’ modular DreamWear platform designed to
simplify set-up by offering multiple cushion options on one mask
frame. This modularity allows for easy and efficient exchange
of cushions during tirtrations with minmal disruptions during the
setup process. The unique, data-driven design of DreamWear Silicone
Pillows is now available for sizing via Philips Mask Selector, a
pairing that helps to reduce costs associated with fitting time and
mask waste.
“In order to help patients adhere to their sleep apnea
therapies, it is critical that we continue to innovate and create
solutions to effectively address patient compliance challenges,”
said Pamela Hall, Sleep Category Leader at Philips. “Through a
combination of addressing customer feedback and data-driven design,
we continue to grow our Dream Family with more options that offer
an unmatched holistic experience when it comes to CPAP mask
comfort, fit, convenience and efficiency. These can be paired with
solutions like Mask Selector to help clinicians and our medical
equipment partners to fit patients effectively, keep patients
comfortable, optimize performance, and promote therapy
outcomes.”
The new pillows cushion combines data from Philips’ advanced 3D
facial scan technology with a unique, all-silicone design to help
reduce pressure points inside the nostril. This innovative approach
offers both comfort and an effective fit and seal, an ideal
combination for therapy acceptance and adherence, particularly when
paired with DreamWear’s convenient modular interchangeability.
Philips’ new silicone pillows mask is the lightest tube-on-top
pillows mask available today [1].
The DreamWear Silicone Pillows joins the Philips Dream Family –
a portfolio of solutions designed to help improve long-term patient
outcomes by providing comfortable and effective sleep apnea
therapy. Now available in North America, the new cushion solution
will expand to additional markets in 2021. For more information
